Specification of neural crest cell formation and migration in mouse embryos.
نویسنده
چکیده
Of all the model organisms used to study human development, rodents such as mice most accurately reflect human craniofacial development. Collective advances in mouse embryology and mouse genetics continue to shape our understanding of neural crest cell development and by extrapolation the etiology of human congenital head and facial birth defects. The aim of this review is to highlight the considerable progress being made in our understanding of cranial neural crest cell patterning in mouse embryos.

Vangl-dependent planar cell polarity signalling is not required for neural crest migration in mammals
The role of planar cell polarity (PCP) signalling in neural crest (NC) development is unclear. The PCP dependence of NC cell migration has been reported in Xenopus and zebrafish, but NC migration has not been studied in mammalian PCP mutants. Vangl2(Lp/Lp) mouse embryos lack PCP signalling and undergo almost complete failure of neural tube closure. Here we show, however, that NC specification, ...

INTRODUCTION Many neural and non-neural cell types in vertebrates are produced by the neural crest, a transient embryonic structure that emerges during neurulation in the dorsal part of the neural tube (Le Douarin et al., 2008). Among the neural crest derivatives are the pigment cells in the skin that are reported to originate either directly from neural crest cells migrating from the neural tu...
متن کاملPFKFB4 control of AKT signaling is essential for premigratory and migratory neural crest formation.
Neural crest (NC) specification comprises an early phase, initiating immature NC progenitors formation at neural plate stage, and a later phase at neural fold stage, resulting in a functional premigratory NC that is able to delaminate and migrate. We found that the NC gene regulatory network triggers upregulation of pfkfb4 (6-phosphofructo-2-kinase/fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase 4) during this lat...
